Abstract
A motor vehicle steering system has a yaw rate sensor for detecting a yaw rate of a motor vehicle, and a lateral acceleration sensor for detecting a lateral acceleration of the motor vehicle. The detected yaw rate and lateral acceleration are processed according to predetermined functions to determine a control signal, which is applied to a motor to turn a steering wheel. Road wheels are correspondingly steered through a steering mechanism in a direction to suppress a disturbant motor vehicle behavior that is caused by the yaw rate and the lateral acceleration.
